History[]

Jonathan Kent is the son of Superman and Wonder Woman in the reality known as the Kingdom (Earth-22). He was kidnapped on the day of his birth by Gog, an agent of the Quintessence who, of his own will, went back through time to destroy Superman at various points throughout history (or so it seemed), unknowingly breaching Hypertime in the process. Gog took Jonathan to 1998 in the mainstream reality and held him hostage inside a chunk of Kryptonite, which Superman originally thought was to keep him away, while he himself attacked Captain Atom in order to cause the Kansas disaster to happen years earlier. Though Superman, Wonder Woman, and Batman of the Kingdom reality succeeded in rescuing Jonathan, he seemed to vanish, making it appear as if their traveling back in time (and through the reality barriers) was all for nothing. However, Jonathan simply slipped into Hypertime, where he was watched over by an older version of himself who is now the guardian of Hypertime. After Gog's defeat and the revelation of Hypertime, the infant Jonathan was handed back to his parents so they could raise him to be the hero they he was predestined to be.
